Highlights
  • Angkor Wat - Angkor Wat is named as the largest religious monument in the world. This 12th-century Hindu temple has become the most popular setting for sunrise. Let’s explore its mystery with us.
  • Angkor Thom - Angkor Thom is the last capital of the Great Khmer Empire, built by the greatest King Jayavarman VII. Stop at the south gate to capture your favorite photos before the driver to Bayon temple.
  • Bayon Temple - Bayon temple is exactly in the center of Angkor Thom. The Bayon’s most distinctive feature is the multitude of serene and smiling stone faces on the many towers which jut out from the upper terrace and cluster around its central peak.
  • Ta Nei Temple - Ta Nei is a jungle ruin that sees very few tourists.
  • Ta Prohm - Ta Prohm is the most atmospheric temple Angkor complex. The trees’ roots are extraordinary as they grow over the walls of the temple. If you have seen Tomb Raider, it would be really interesting. Who hasn’t?

Words can’t explain how awesome this is - Sopheak was our guide for the day around the temples. I can’t begin to tell you what an amazing day we had. He was so knowledgeable and answered all our questions (and there were a few!). He also knew where to go and when and it often felt like we were the only ones at the temples. The whole experience was beyond my expectations and I absolutely loved it. Can not recommend this enough (we also did it in an old army jeep which my husband found very exciting). Book the tour….you will not be disappointed

Sunrise Jeep Tour of Angkor Wat - Our tour guide Weasna was knowledgeable and able to explain to us the history and culture of the four historic sites we saw. He also went out of his way to take lots of photos of our group and knew all the best angles for great pictures. We had a fantastic tour and we would sign up again with Cambodia Overland Travel.

The best tour we have ever done! Don’t miss out on this! - We had the most incredible trip with Lao, we were picked up on time in the amazing old jeep and got to Angkor Wat at perfect time for sunrise! Lao knows all the best routes round the temples so you are not inundated with other tourists. We also had the pleasure of visiting other temples within Siem reap including ones that were truly off the beaten track where we were the only people! Not only does Lao speak amazing English he also knows great places for photos and all of the history! We could not recommend this tour more and will never forget the experience!

BEST tour and guide in Siem Reap - The BEST tour and tour guide in Siem Reap! Educational, adventurous, and honestly inspiring. Going to Angkor Wat for sunrise is a MUST DO! Our tour guide, Lao, was very passionate about sharing knowledge about his country. He is very friendly, fun, and laid back, and he also makes some good puns. He engaged with everyone in our group and was attentive to all of our varying interests and needs, answering all of our questions from Khmer legends to daily life. He made everyone feel very comfortable too. BONUS POINTS for the cool towels and cold water after walking in the hot sun! That was such a pleasant touch that seriously made a big difference in our experience! Truly the perfect tour for anyone and for all ages. We could tell he’s a very experienced tour guide too. Fluent English speaker with very clear explanations of Khmer history and stories. He’s also a great photographer and knows all the best spots to take pictures.
